Individuals who had completed an inpatient treatment program for alcoholism within the last three years were sent a survey measuring personality variables, demographic characteristics, aftercare, aftercare involvement, and sobriety. Responses were obtained from 262 individuals who were currently maintaining sobriety. The proportion of time sober since discharge was related to race, low depression, having no previous hospitalizations, aftercare involvement, and marital stability. Continuously sober individuals differed from those who experienced a relapse on the measure of depression but not on measures of assertiveness or anger. Involvement with Alcoholics Anonymous was related to relapse only for recently discharged patients.

The sharing of life stories is the most important social practice among members of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). Close attention to autobiographic story-telling in AA provides clues as to how AA works to heal alcoholism by creating a community of recovering alcoholics. This paper examines three major ways that AA stories create community. First, in the course of the performance of autobiographic narratives, expert AA speakers allow create social structure between themselves and their audience. Second, proper AA stories are the means by which AA members acquire and maintain their identities as recovering alcoholics. In this manner, story-listening is just as important as story-telling. Third, through the invocation of strong feeling, both tragic and humorous, AA story-tellers create a kind of intimacy based on shared emotion.
